Timeline Media Group (Timeline.com) is seeking to build a global team of expert writers and editors at the intersection of digital media, news, and history.
What is Timeline?
Timeline presents meaningful news stories through historical perspectives.
We believe “the news” is just the short tail of a very long string of events. Timeline aims to disrupt the traditional news cycle by presenting stories that are rich in historical and geographical context, while using cutting-edge technology to share complex narratives in digestible and easy-to-read formats.
Notable events, people, and places are presented within human-curated narratives, providing an overview of relevant history, and deepening our knowledge of the forces that shape the present. Timeline makes history relevant, navigable, and engaging for a broad yet discerning audience.
Who are we looking for?
We are seeking media savvy academics, industry experts, historians, and individuals with diverse backgrounds, excellent writing skills, and thorough research experience.
We want self-starting, entrepreneurial individuals who can pitch great ideas and work independently, yet also be part of a collaborative and close-knit team of writers responsible for shaping the editorial voice, style, and content of a groundbreaking new media platform that explores history in a new way.
Candidates should have a deep interest in and understanding of current affairs and historical contexts, with a demonstrated ability to write clear, compelling, and succinct content on their area of expertise. Professionalism, and the ability to consistently deliver quality content on deadlines is a must.
The ideal candidate should have a keen understanding of historical perspectives, and the ability to effectively curate them into meaningful stories that add depth and context to global affairs today. They must have an eye for important stories that fly under the radar and are routinely ignored by traditional news media.
